My wife Dilshad and I had been dreaming about travelling along the Silk Road in China and Pakistan for years, and so when we had an Expo we needed to attend in Shanghai, and since the season was right, we decided to make this trip happen in May/June this year. Since Western China and Northern Pakistan are remote and non-touristy places, we had to spend several months researching and planning the trip; what to see and what to do.

The trip was absolutely worth it and we highly recommend that everyone do this trip if they can. I hope you enjoy my trip blog and pictures which will be serialized in http://www.simergphotos.com commencing week of October 24, 2016.
